    Customizing Field lables based on value of Key1

    Hi Ermer That sounds like it could get messy. You might be able to make a trigger that would update the fields tabl but it would sacrifice performance - if it would even work. You could look into Lookup.ini that would update another user defined field. Here is something similar that...

    GM.INI change through interface

    Thanks Richard, that was driving me crazy. I must have put it in the INI file and didn't remember. I wish I hadn't because it caused a major headache. It works well, but it doesn't notify the user. If anyone is interested, below are 2 good INI references. Thanks again Dave...

    Maximum Row Size

    Hello From the thread I have learned There is a small chance the user will not be able to insert data, if they populate all of the fields, they could receive an error message and the INSERT or UPDATE will fail. I have the option of updating one table with a view. Normilization will improve...

    Maximum Row Size

    Thanks George - I see the logic in what you are saying. Our customers are internal users who are pretty adamant about how and where they want the data displayed. In order to have it displayed on the screen the way they want - the field needs to be on the primary table. If I can come up with...

    RESEED in order

    Right - "the sequence_no being the identity column." thats what I meant. LINE_NO is from the old data - I want to sort by LINE_NO - it already has data, I'm not repopulating it. Sorry about that, its hard to make clear
